Happy to share our latest paper on metal nutrition in plants, with a special focus on zinc ! 🌱 journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a… #Arabidopsis #Zinc #Transporter #ZIP



Very proud to be part of this amazing story!🥳
Very excited that our work on directional symplastic transport in differentiated root is now published!A developmental switch controls cell-to-cell transport in roots via pectin-linked plasmodesmata changes: Molecular Plant cell.com/molecular-plan…
GWAs reveals SUBER GENE1-mediated suberization via Type One Phosphatases biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #biorxiv_plants
Our new preprint! 🌱 We identified four new AtZIP transporters localized at the root outer domain which contribute to metals acquisition from the soil! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A big step to better understand radial transport of nutrients in roots!
🚨 ROOT ALERT! 🚨 My preprint Directional Cell-to-cell Transport in Plant Roots is sprouting soon! 🌱🌿 Discover how symplastic flow occurs in mature roots and what a genetic screen reveals about unidirectional transport in roots 🧬. Spoiler: ⬇️ (1/6) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Zinc deficiency is the most abundant microdeficiency of plants globally. It affects up to 50% of all arable lands. We show that Brassicaceae plants (broccoli, radish) actively secrete peptides to increase root mass under zinc starvation. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Spatial IMA1 regulation restricts root iron acquisition on MAMP perception nature.com/articles/s4158… Very nice paper!👏

Our review with @MarieBarberon is out! We discuss recent advances on plant mineral nutrition, nutrient carriers' localisation and nutrients sensing. 😁 Nutrient carriers at the heart of plant nutrition and sensing sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Happy to share my very first News and Views with @MarieBarberon on NPFs, ABA and suberin!
Now with a News & Views by @MarieBarberon: "NPFs rule suberization" rdcu.be/dbrO8 Long- and short-distance transport of ABA and gibberellin (GA) via four members of the nitrate and peptide transporter family (NPFs) is crucial for endodermal suberization in roots.
It’s this time of the year again! Marmite breaking in Geneva for #escalade Good Job Fabienne and @MBCapitao
Honored for receiving this price from both @AcademieAgri and @SfbvFr.
Remise du Prix de la @SfbvFr, ce matin dans nos locaux, à Kévin ROBE pour ses travaux sur le rôle des #coumatines dans la #nutrition en #fer chez Arabidopsis thaliana @INRAE_France
It was my pleasure to present my work on coumarins and iron at @SfbvFr congress in Montpellier. @IPSiM4
